# Leap Motion to Arduino communication

### Simple communication between the Leap Motion Controller and Arduino via Cylon

4 LEDs represents 4 directions, forward, backward, left and right. LEDs light up depends on your palm gesture.

### Required Hardware

- [Leap Motion Controller](https://www.leapmotion.com/)

- [Arduino](https://www.arduino.cc/)

### Required Packages

- [Node](https://nodejs.org/en/):

`brew install npm`

- [Cylon.js](https://cylonjs.com/):

`npm install cylon cylon-leapmotion cylon-firmata`

- [Gort](http://gort.io/):

`brew install hybridgroup/tools/gort`

### How-to Run

- Plug-in the Leap Motion Controller and Arduino with LED at pin 3

- (Optional) Scan Arduino port path, execute `gort scan serial`

- (Optional) Upload Firmata to Arduino, execute `gort arduino upload firmata `

- In terminal, execute `node leap2arduino.js`
